Aston Villa vs Burnley: Gerrard’s team to pick up three points

Aston Villa take on Burnley at home. This match will be held in the 18th round of the English championship. Will the Lions take advantage of the visitors’ poor form?

After their 0-1 loss away to Liverpool, Aston Villa played another away game. On Matchday 17 of the EPL, the Birmingham side played away against Norwich City. Expectedly, Steven Gerrard’s players were able to return to winning ways. Villa scored two unanswered goals against their opponents, Ramsey and Watkins. The result gave the Lions 22 points. Aston Villa sit tenth in the Premier League table.

Burnley cannot yet overcome their relegation crisis. Their last opponent in the English league was West Ham United. In this encounter, the fans did not witness any activity. In the 15 games played, Sean Dyche’s team achieved only one win. At the moment, the club has 11 points on their books. Burnley are 18th in the Premier League table.

Burnley expect a very difficult trip to Birmingham. Under Steven Gerrard, the Birmingham side justifies their status as favourites in most matches (unless they play against top teams). In their last home game against Burnley, the Lions failed to delight the fans with a win. I believe that this time, Aston Villa will not falter and will pick up three points against Burnley. I suggest considering the following options for the meeting:

• W1 for 1.66;
• Both teams to score - No for 1.75;
• Correct score 2-0 for 7.50.
